There are places were people have lived that are among the last and best spots on Earth, places that speak of remoteness, peace and calm. Camsell Portage is just such a community.

Though it is not located at the end of the earth, Camsell is so far removed from the hustle and bustle of the contemporary rat race that one would be hard put to find a more serene and tranquil community.

The community of Camsell Portage is located on the north shore of Lake Athabasca in northern Saskatchewan. The settlement is a predominantly Dene community of approximately 8 people where the majority of residents still practice a traditional way of life, living off the land by way of fish, game and fur.

Though it may be hard for some to understand ( But not for me !!!) the community's reason for being, those who were born and have lived there, can list the good reasons for its continued renewal other than the edible resources of nature. The Boreal forest, the freshest water, Northern air and a land unsurpassed in its beauty.
